Show transcript
[r] is a rolling sound at the start of a syllable, after a consonant or a short vowel. This is consonantal [r].
[r] is a gentle 'ah' sound after a long vowel and in '-er'. It often sounds barely there. This is vocalic [r].
Combine two or more nouns to form a compound noun. Its grammatical gender will be the same as that of the final noun.
The English meaning of German compound nouns is not always a word-for-word translation.
Strong verbs have a vowel change in their verb stem in the ‘du’, ‘sie’, ‘er’ and ‘es’ forms.
